The shiny Polyurethane finish on the polyvinyl-coated cotton Venus fabric renders the material water repellant, resistant to most scratches, and may repel superficial dirt.

No creams, polishes or leather conditioning products should be used on the Vacchetta Leather trim and handles. Please note that it is a natural characteristic of Vacchetta Leather to darken over time, with use and exposure to light. The Suede used for the base on the Lee Totes has been treated for general water repellency. However, should the base become wet, a dry cloth should be used to blot the excess liquid, then allowed to dry thoroughly. Once dry, a suede brush should be used to gently lift the nap. Some superficial dirt may be removed from the Suede with a soft white eraser used in a gentle circular motion, followed by the light stroke of a suede/nubuk brush.

Please note: Some consideration should be given when using these handbags during inclement weather.
